AFTV1 or 2? My day 1 AFTV1 works like a champ with Plex. I still prefer it over my Roku 3's interface and performance.

In a retail world this is sometimes the best approach. Who knows where you will be working next week and this stuff goes away. And I hope this isn't the shift in their pricing model. These are typically the $120 chip in the Winter/Summer deals so maybe this midstream pricing is a blip.

I read this somewhere else and it I didn't even think of this. I think it is a decent approach even if they are losing money on the chips they sell in the deals.

And an Obihai box is $30 one time with Google Voice free. But I don't see how this solves talking on the go.

Yeah, they usually take a majority of the shipping window estimate. 4 weeks was about right for the last few deals.

It's been mentioned but the ASRock boards seem to be highly rated. I have a Z97 ASRock board and have been really happy with it. I have an Asus H97 board that doesn't want to play nicely with Windows 10, however. Which one are you leaning towards?

You must have pressed purchased and posted that 2 seconds later. I may have had a refresh extension running. :)

I think about this sometimes and I always seem to want a new server for some reason but this time I may just pass it up. We shall see.

You and me both. I thought if they brought back the 5930K I might jump. Hopefully they announce a week early like they usually do so I can really ponder it. I don't think I will jump on a 6700k if they go that route again. I can't go back to 4 cores, I just can't!

I am perfectly happy going in twice a month and staying at Master. I just haven't created a routine to do the Legend activities on a regular basis. The price difference isn't huge but I should for the other benefits like having the entire store available when new products become available. I...

Started a new thread because we are pretty close to the next deal I think.

We are within one verification period of the suspected winter deal dates so I say it is time to start this thread again. At the end of the Summer 2016 thread there was speculation as to what might be on the deal; m.2? 6 core? same things? I won't prognosticate but I will root for the 6800k or...

In my initial non-expert opinion I didn't really have anything to say on this because my boxes are in another room where it is cooler and not a lot of foot traffic in the house. Even then they are in a white box server so the fans never even let their noise get through during setup on the bench...

Well that's just drop dead tempting. I have the 4tb version of this drive and everything they say is true; it's hotter, but very fast. Curious as to if anyone else like these like I do. Good deal it seems.

Yeah, with all the streaming and free shipping you paid for at and understood price at the time! How dare they! :D
